FAQ

Pursuant to CPLR 6501, “a notice of pendency may be filed only when 'the judgment demanded would affect the title to, or the possession, use or enjoyment of, real property'” (Delidimitropoulos v Karantinidis, 142 AD3d 1038, 1039, quoting CPLR 6501).

While the CPLR does not state a specific deadline for service of notice of entry, the court may order one. See Court Opinions. In any event, it should be done promptly, to prevent unnecessary delays in the litigation.

In a case specified in section 6501, the notice of pendency shall be filed in the office of the clerk of any county where property affected is situated, before or after service of summons and at any time prior to judgment.
